Greenwich, CT Medical Malpractice Lawyer
People trust health care professionals to provide them medical treatment with a high level of care. Whether they are visiting for a general checkup or a complex surgery, patients put their lives in the hands of their doctors. There is a trust established with medical professionals to keep their patients safe and help them with whatever medical conditions that are ailing them.
However, doctors are people, too. They can make mistakes, which can sometimes lead to more harm. Depending on the situation, a doctor’s mistake can leave a patient with a life-altering injury, or the patient may even die from the medical errors. Many times, these errors could have been prevented if the medical professional had followed the standard of care. When these types of errors happen, you may have a case for medical malpractice.
If a healthcare professional does not follow proper procedures or fails to provide a standard of care common among their peers, such mistakes can qualify as medical malpractice. Medical personnel have a duty to provide quality health care, and you may have a case to claim damages if they do not deliver.

You should contact The Doctor Lawyer Team today if you believe you or your loved one suffered from medical malpractice. We will draw upon our extensive medical and legal backgrounds and experience to thoroughly investigate your case and help you with your claim for damages.
The responsibility and burden of proof are on your side. You have to show that the health care provider failed to provide you with acceptable treatment meeting the standard of care. Your proof of medical malpractice should include the following elements:
- There was a doctor-patient relationship between the two of you.
- The health care provider or doctor was negligent and failed to uphold the standard of acceptable care.
- That failure led to your injury or harm.
- You suffered economic and non-economic damages because of the injury.
A medical malpractice claim is distinct from many other personal injury claims in that they usually require another doctor or health care professional to testify regarding the medical negligence and errors in your treatment that led to your harm and the malpractice case. Securing this testimony is an important challenge in a medical malpractice case.
The Doctor Lawyer Team can help you with all of this. In addition to building your case, we can also help you negotiate with the insurance company and represent you in court, as needed.
